There's something appealing to me about flat shading, it reminds me of Star Fox on the SNES.

I feel like there's a lot of retro juice that can be squeezed out of that aesthetic; I'm not really trying here, but I'd like to do so more

The Most Standard Operating System Ever:

- POSIX kernel/userland
- X/Open specced X11R5 windowing system
- X/Open specced Motif widget toolkit
- UDF Type 1 as the filesystem
- iBCS as the ABI

Everything a standard. (UDF is the only filesystem I know that is both standardized in itself and natively supports devices nodes and symlinks, required for POSIX)

All from scratch in ISO C. It will be completely standards compliant, an exemplar, and incompatible with everything.

BREAKING: Wikipedia workers in Britain are setting a global first by becoming the first body of workers at the online encyclopaedia to seek union recognition.

The WMF has undergone a period of significant change in recent months, escalating workers’ concerns over transparency, trust, and the organisation’s future direction.

This is an infographic showing the United Tech and Allied Workers and Communication Workers Union logos along side the following text: "British-based employees at the Wikimedia Foundation (WMF) have requested recognition for their union from their employer. They are organising with UTAW and have a significant majority union membership at WMF.  Today's step towards unionisation is a global first for Wikimedia workers. It comes after a period of significant change at WMF, escalating workers’ concerns over transparency, trust, and the organisation’s future direction."

I've posted these two videos featuring WING and Vahtang before:

And I was enjoying them again this morning when a thought occurred to me. I don't know what the future holds, but one (hopefully remote) possibility is one where many of us lose infrastructure that we take for granted. For example, electricity. But even if that happened, thanks to human's awesome vocal ability, we won't have to be left without our sick beats.

Imagine a future group of humans who continue a tradition of "electronic" music with sounds, patterns, forms, and idioms completely removed from the context from which it used to copy. It is no longer a copy. It is the thing.

So, I have painted some walls. This is generally considered to be a reasonably minor DIY task but this kind of work has sent me to an anxious tailspin before and now it is noticeably not doing that. This is a pretty significant mental health success.

I can probably credit my medication regime and taking some DIY classes for this

#foxesInLove #comic

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue is enjoying the breeze in front of a fan, while Green sits some distance away from him, with his back towards Blue, clearly sulking.  Blue looks at Green as Green turns to look at him, still with a grumpy look on his face. Green: I'm sorry I've been awful all day. This heat makes me miserable to be around.  Blue looks frankly at Green, who appears mildly surprised. Blue: You haven't done or said anything. Green: Oh?  Green turns back around, looking tired and frustrated but no longer angry. Green: I've been thinking evil thoughts all day.

Do we have a name for this genre of "our glorious AI future means we fire people" announcement? Like the "Our Incredible Journey" startup shutdown posts?

@glyph It's nice to not feel so alone, seeing another FOSS project lead say "we don't want our project to become a legal experiment"

I feel like the fact that we haven't seen enough leadership in FOSS say "hey, we DON'T know the licensing implications of this stuff" is catapulting the greater FOSS ecosystem into one giant legal experiment that seems, frankly, very likely to be grim for us.

I might say more in a separate thread. This has been brewing on my mind quite a bit lately.

Thanks for saying what you did in choosing to make a policy!

I've had a lot going on and have not wanted to have this difficult conversation with the community, but apparently we have reached the point where it absolutely needs to be laid out clearly. To be honest I am still kind of shocked that anyone would consider it acceptable to start putting LLM output into open source libraries at all, just purely based on IP concerns alone. The way that the vendors' IP indemnification works only makes sense for proprietary code.
